Comment on Are autistic people known to post a lot in social media or websites to "fill" their imaginations?
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 day ago@TotallyNotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone Don’t forget her yuriposting. Top quality stuff.
I can confirm that I’m not autistic, afaik I’m a plain cis white guy with a probably neurotypical brain.
My “bot” is a set of automation tools I wrote that let me turn my fanart collecting hobby into posts that get posted at a constant trickle instead of a flood. I do see and verify every post before they go into the queue.
My real quirk is my commenting habit. I was already an avid reddit commenter before finding lemmy, but over here something puts it into overdrive. I think it’s because discussion here is just higher quality and more respectful (at least in the subs I frequent). Plus its small enough that the comment section is not as much of a popularity contest. I’ve averaged 10 comments a day for two years now… That’s normal. Right?

Waaait so in some way you still manually select these pictures, it’s just you have a script that instantly will make a post on Lemmy, like if you upvote / like / heart an art on pixiv then it goes into the queue? Damn that’s impressive.
10 comments / day and your post rate is still higher than your comments. 💥
I LOVE LEMMY FOR STUFFS LIKE THESE. Thanks for recognizing me Mental, I have unfortunately become a filthy passive user, but I kinda want to go back in posting some content. I still remember that nfs 2015 post you’ve made once that was viral.

It’s actually grown into something of an art discovery tool in itself.
It’s not hooked into my pixiv account in any way, I have to manually feed it artists or pixiv/danbooru links, if I find a post I wanna share or add to the queue.
The real magic started when I made it so I could configure a list of communities to post to, and list relevant danbooru tags for each community, and then have the bot go out and find stuff that would fit in the community, even checking which community has the least posts lined up. AND it cross-references with artists I’ve manually added as ones I like.
And it keeps track of what’s been posted, and what stuff by artists I like hasn’t been posted.
So when the queue runs low, I can literally just rapid-fire go yay or nay on a bunch of images like its a dating app. There are currently 327864 images in the suggestion queue by artists I like. And it finds more outside that if needed based on danbooru tags.
